—A 3-D coherent radar backscatter model for forest canopies was developed and used to improve the understanding of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometric data. The model was based on a realistic 3-D spatial structure of a forest stand, in which every scatterer has its deterministic location. A backscat-tering signal from a scatterer was mapped into… (More)

Problem Forest canopy height is essential information for many forest management activities and is also a critical parameter in models of ecosystem processes and in better quantifying the terrestrial carbon cycle [1, 2]. Several categories of methods are available to measure canopy height from remote sensing technology, one of which is the Polarimetric… (More)

The alkaloids in the processed Rhizoma Corydalis and the crude Rhizoma Corydalis were qualitatively and semiquantitatively analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) method. The processing herb drug procedure was carried out according to the standard method of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The samples were extracted using Soxhlet extractor with… (More)
